Priorat Wine
Absolutley amazing. Your restaurant suggestions really made Barcelona even better. But just when we thought our trip couldn’t get any better, we arrived at Mas Figures. It was like a dream, and if we didn’t take pictures, I probably would not have believed we were really there. Rachel was very very nice. She knew so much about the history of the Priorat, and did such a great job selecting the wineries. We loved Ferrán too. We loved everyone and everything really. I can’t thank you enough.

I appreciate your selection of excellent guides. I felt like I was their guest, not just a tourist. Jane, thank you a lot for making great trip plans and for sharing your knowledge of Spain.
